whereagles Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 I get the feeling a spade is right :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jlall Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 I'd go with a club, this heart suit is way too aggressive for a lead into a 2N opener at MP, but I do think some aggression is called for (ie, not a trump). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cascade Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 A club looks normal. A heart could easily be better. I am not leading a trump with ♦ Jx its too likely (but not certain) we need to take out side tricks before they can ditch them on some diamonds.

han Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 I know I would lead a club here for sure, but not sure if it is best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo81 Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 If opps are playing texas and i trust them to have a slam try for this sequence then I would lead a heart. Otherwise I'd lead a trump, I hate all my leads. If you had thrown in some decent club spots I'd lead that insteafd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
655321 Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 I lead a club.Probably declarer will play ♣A, ♣K, ♣ruff in hand, draw trumps for 10 tricks, but I still can't bring myself to lead a trump. Don't like a heart lead at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenrexford Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 I have K108x in hearts? Oh, Boy! I love this kind of lead problem, because I have my favorite option available -- a surrounding play on opening lead! I'll lead (because this is a "guess the lead" question) the heart 10. I'm catering to the following layout in hearts: [hv=d=e&n=shqxxdc&w=shjxxdc&e=sha9xdc&s=shk108xdc]399|300|[/hv] Partner can get in with his spade winner and lead a heart through declarer before declarer can use his diamonds to pitch his heart loser. If he tries to pitch the heart loser before pulling trumps, I can trump in. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
